The biggest “God moment” I’ve had was when I was at rock bottom, and Robert shared about an article that explained why just having the courage to get out of bed on your darkest days was an act of worship. That was a major turning point for me, and I still think about that almost daily.
When my grandson was little and would come to visit from Oklahoma City, he would love to stand at my back door which was glass and look outside. He would smear his little hand prints and slobber all over it. I normally wouldn't stand for such a mess but after he would go home I always left those sweet smears and slobbers there until I knew he was coming back. Every time I looked at it, I remembered him standing there and my heart was full.
My half-sister has had mental issues her entire life and because of that, she's had to be institutionalized most of her life. This past week, while my mom was visiting with her, it was as if my sister's mind was clear for the first time in ages. My mom and her had a heart to heart conversation that my sister was fully aware of and in the moment for. It was a special gift from God for my mom to receive this moment. Almost like a glimpse of what heaven will be like.
Our family is so incredibly grateful for KLRC and has been listening for several years, since our oldest son who was probably 4 years old and fell in love with the music and messages shared on KLRC. Not long after, I decided to give a single gift to KLRC during the fundraiser, and I remember a space at the bottom of the online form asking if there was anything I wanted the KLRC team to pray for. I can distinctly recall typing my request "for the spiritual growth of our family." While at the time, we had a strong faith, we did not have a church home, and I knew we had a lot of growing to do spiritually. I had no idea how God would move in our lives, work through KLRC and answer that prayer in the years to follow. But it brings tears to my eyes now to share that we have come so far in our spiritual journey. A little over a year ago, we found our church home. And last fall, our entire family: myself, my husband and our 2 boys (ages 6 and 9) were all baptized. KLRC has been a HUGE part of our spiritual journey, impacts our lives daily, and I know our spiritual growth is in such large part due to that prayer request years ago that continues to be answered today. THANK YOU SO MUCH to all at KLRC for the amazing work you do impacting lives everyday!
God knows his children and knows who needs these songs and the work that the KLRC team does for our community. How blessed are we? God has worked in so many ways for my family. This week, I have listened to the fundraiser each day. On Wednesday, my brother-in-law donated a kidney so that my father-in-law could receive a kidney that he desperately needed. My step son was approved through Arkansas Children's Hospital to receive the new cochlear implants that he needs to hear (without them, he is deaf). Yesterday, during the storms that hit our area, my husband was flying in from being with his dad & brother in Georgia. God landed his plane safely and our family was together again! If there was ever a time that I felt God's love and presence, this was it! This week God has held me and I know that he is holding my brothers and sisters in this loving community as well. Thank you KLRC!
I am a high school student and I really struggle with depression and anxiety and KLRC helps to keep me going and stay positive through hard times. I feel like I am always alone and unwanted, but KLRC is the positive light on my day and makes me truly feel like God is there and wants me for who I am.
I struggle significantly with anxiety and listening to KLRC helps lessen the anxiety. Recently at night my oldest asks me to turn on KLRC so that they can fall asleep listening to the music. We take turns singing on the way to school. Sometimes they get to hear their favorite song on the way to school which they love. This radio station is literally healing for me and my babies. Thank you KLRC and everyone who donates. ❤️❤️💗💗
I have had some pretty heavy medical issues pop up. I don't work outside of the home (disabled --- why is that so hard to say instead of what I put first?). My kids are all grown, so I rarely am in the car. I've recently started physical therapy and so of course, I turn the radio on, on my drive there and back. 90.9 KLRC has often been a source of encouragement and comfort in the past, through inspirational stories and the great music you play. So naturally, I turn the station to you guys and so many songs resonated with all of these heavy emotions I've been feeling. They have been a form of prayer when I can't quite find the words myself. And then during your fundraising you mentioned your prayer wall. I didn't even know that was a thing! And I've had something private in my life (aside from medical issues) that I really needed to feel I wasn't alone in and your prayer wall gave me the opportunity to ask for fellow listeners to join me in petitioning God to answer my prayers. You're a blessing every day and I'm thankful for your positive influence in our community.
During Covid my husband had to go into a rehab center and I was unable to visit. He had a debilitating brain tumor. I was working from home-what a blessing to listen to KLRC everyday. At a particularly tough day, I went for a walk and the chorus from Tasha Layton "it's gonna be ok" was the voice of God that comforted me. When he passed away I felt I had to sponsor a day in his honor. I was only planning to do it that year as I was already a day sponsor. As KLRC continues to lift me daily, I have continued sponsoring 2 days. I know I need to hear these words of hope every day.
As a stay at home mom of 3 little ones, the conversations that you have on air that resonate so deeply with me and help me feel part of something bigger. I lost my mom, grandma, and one of my brothers within a short time span and felt so isolated with my feelings even though I wasn't isolated. I so appreciated the deeper conversations that are always so positive and uplifting. Exactly what I need.
The emails and card from all of you and the prayer on the air during the last fundraiser in the fall for my wife... You guys wrapped your arms around us when my son passed and haven't stopped. We play you in both our cars and at my office. God bless you. You guys are IT!
I was driving my 7 year-old granddaughter to school, and the Holy Spirit moved me to donate to KLRC. My grandaughter's dad has a long story of bad choices. Through it all, I was given custody and am trying to raiser her on a fixed income by myself. But every day I see God provide in so many ways. At night, when she goes to sleep, her mind goes to bad places, but she will put on KLRC as she sleeps to keep her mind on God. My radio is always dialed in to KLRC. I am so grateful for my granddaughter being in my life. She loves the Lord and it is the biggest gift. I am SO grateful for KLRC!
I just celebrated 5 years sobriety. Praise the Lord! I was going through a horrible time in my life 5 years ago. I was an alcoholic living in total darkness, sitting alone in my room totally intoxicated. I asked God if He would take me out of this life permanently (I was tired) or if HE would change my life to live for Him. I turned my life over to Him that night! Of course, God wasn’t done with me... I’m still here. After a year sobriety I was listening to 90.9 KLRC and heard this song "There Was Jesus." I have lived every word. When I fell to my knees Jesus had His hand out ready to help me up.
I wanted to share a story how you’re making a positive difference and helping to make Jesus famous. I’m an SRO for our school district and I have been struggling with the emotional weight that comes from working with kids who come from trauma situations and debating if this job was even worth the effort or made a difference. I was deciding if it was time to find a new job. One day I had to drop my vehicle off at our district Bus Barn for service, and when I picked it up the Service Manager had changed my radio station to 90.9 KLRC. I decided to leave it and started listening to your station. A few days later I had 2 kids who had some issues going on and were having a really bad day so I decided to take them both to lunch and talk it over. As we left for lunch, I had the radio on but turned down pretty low, then one of the kids reached over and turned it up and they both started singing along to the song on your station. I was instantly humbled, and knew God had me right where I was supposed to be. Just one guy working in a bus maintenance barn being obedient to God, and a couple of amazing kids sharing His message of love and hope through a radio station. No matter what you do or where you are you can share God's love.
I work in behavioral and mental health provider and there are days I cry until I cannot cry anymore. There are things I cannot talk to others about, so I know I can turn KLRC on & will be given the encouragement I needed. You ALWAYS know what song to play at the very moment I most need it. Because of you, I am intentional in my my interactions with others. My two younger kiddos listen to you to and from school and it always opens them up to talk about Jesus. Thank you for reminding me to be a light in a world that often times feels dark and isolating. For all of those who are feeling broken... I ask that you give those pieces to God & watch what He can and will do.
I’ve been listening to KLRC for years. As a struggling single mom most of my boys lives I was never able to donate. God has provided for me in more ways than I’ve ever known. I definitely wouldn’t be where I am today without the love mercy and grace of our Lord and the music and inspirational words that come from KLRC and the staff!
I wish I could express enough how much y’all have helped me not only in the last year but for a few years now. Y’all were there for and with me as my mom started to decline with her kidney failure and in an incredible way since last February as I was told there was nothing more that could be done for my dad and to call in hospice. Your kindness and warmth has inspired me to reach out to others who are hurting. You and everyone else at KLRC are truly Jesus in human form in all you do! Thank you for saving my life. God is so amazing! He doesn’t send the storms of life but He’s there to remind us that He’s the calm in the storm. He counts every tear we shed and grows something beautiful from it. Thank you for giving us all a glimpse of heaven here on earth.
I just had to share how KLRC helped one of my students this morning. Colby is a sweet and generally happy child, but he didn't want to go to school because last week he had a couple of bad days. His mother needed my help to even get him in the van because he refused. However I asked God to help me and as we got going picking up other students, the song "Good God" by Chris Renzema came on. As the song was going I could see the mood in Colby's eyes change. He just relaxed and he was himself for the rest of the drive, praise the Lord! Thank you KLRC for helping me to pour into these kids everyday. God is good!
So often we don't think kids are listening. We don't consider what they are absorbing through our electronic screens and radio speakers. Our 4 yr old, Carter, and I were headed to school and he said, "Mom turn on the song about God. It says God is in the details." I said, "Buddy, we are listening to songs about God (The KLRC Morning Show was on)." "But Mom," he said, "The one that says God is in the details!" I told him I wasn't sure which song he was talking about and we'd just have to wait to see what played next from the radio. We arrived at daycare and didn't hear it. He was mad at me because I didn't turn it on. A few days pass we're headed home from school and the radio is on but turned down. He said, "Mom! Mom! Turn it up, it's the song!" Sure enough it was! They're listening! We just have to pay attention and talk to them. Thank you for putting God through our speakers!
